The Story of the Pinecone

In 1949, the Mary E. Bivins Foundation was established with the primary mission to provide opportunities for older adults to lead meaningful and rewarding lives. Our tradition is rich in a heritage of service to others and a belief that the possibilities of our dreams are abundant.

The pine cone, which is the fruit of the evergreen tree, represents our commitment to care for the elderly. The tree gives vibrant green color when the rest of the world has turned brown. It bears fruit that never dies. The pine cone symbolizes the spirit of the continuing vision of service to others.

To the many individuals we have been privileged to serve in distinctive ways – through scholarship, partnership and collaboration – thank you for participating in our vision of service. Join us as we prepare for a promising future filled with opportunities to live our values and positively affect the dignity, independence, self-worth and good health of others.
